188: Simplifying Your Life to Ease Burnout from Adrenal Fatigue with Caroline Potter, NTP

Jul 24, 2020

This episode begins with a couple updates, including a continuation of our anti-racism conversation we’ve been having all summer long. In today’s episode, I share what is radical self love and how it impacts social justice movements and equality. I share a few quotes about what I am learning about radical self love in the book, The Body is Not an Apology, by Sonja Renee Taylor.

 

Stress is HIGH right now and the long term effects of stress are so important to understand. On the podcast today, I have guest Caroline Potter, a NTP and holistic nutritionist, to share with you how to simplify your life to ease burnout from adrenal fatigue. If you’ve been overwhelmed lately, this episode is for you!

 

Caroline’s mission to give women the tools they need not just to survive the day, but thrive, each and every day. Caroline is the author the blog, Flourish, as a resource for women who are on a journey of pursuing conscious living, particularly those who want to flourish with purpose. These days, you can find Caroline teaching and equipping women to walk away from the hustle, and to live, love, and flourish with purpose, taking care of themselves so they can better serve those around them.

 

In this episode we discuss: 

  • Caroline’s own story with overwhelm, burn out and adrenal fatigue and the signs that she realized she was suffering
  • What is adrenal fatigue (HPA axis dysfunction) and signs you may be experiencing it
  • How Caroline simplified her life to reduce the burn out and overwhelm
  • Why busy is not a descriptor we want to use to describe our lives
  • Easy steps you can take today if you are experiencing stress and possibly adrenal fatigue
  • Supplement and CBD oil to support reducing stress levels
  • How caffeine can impact adrenal fatigue, focusing on moderation instead of extreme views on taking things out of your diet
  • Why you may need to pause or reduce exercise if you have high stress levels
  • How Caroline practices wellness without obsession
